A fun day at sea
My 15 yr old nephew from Chicago came down to Florida for two weeks, so the Mrs and I took him deep sea fishing on monday (7-20-09).
So to document the experiance her is a few photos. My nephew didn't want his picture taken at all so ther is none to post. Karen caught a ton of fish but this shark was a keeper, and the fight almost wore her out. LOL I caught to legal size dinks ( left hand: Black sea bass, Right hand: Snapper) and a choclate chip croaker. And we didn't get a picture of it but a octopuss got tangled up in our lines (karen and I) and we boated that to. What a fun day we all had.

Sounds fun! My dad once hooked into a 6 foot reef shark.... spooled him to about 20 yards of line, than it wore out a little, he got half the spool back and it did the same thing again. Once he got it to the boat... line bust!

Bass Boss, something simular like that happened yesterday but we never got to see what type of fish it was. We had dolphine strikeing the smaller black sea bass when we got them up to about six feet from the surface, that was alot of fun!!

Hey Frank,
You may be the guy I need to talk to for advise ...I'm going back to Clearwater Beach for a couple of weeks in October, and have the gulf right in front of the condo, plus that pier 60 is a few blocks away to fish from. DO you know what fish to expect to catch that time of year, and what lures or bait do I throw? I've pier fished before in st Augustine and Jacksonville, so I have a lil experience at it, plus it would be so convenient to fish right in front of my sons condo and cheaper too LOL.thanks for any ideas |

That kid caught the dolphine, while bringing up a small sea bass. He did a great job fighting the fish back to the boat. Quote:
